Don't ICE if TAIT-defining fn contains a closure with `_` in return type

The `delay_span_bug` got added in rust-lang@0e82aae to reduce the amount of errors emitted for functions that have `_` in their return type, because inference doesn't apply to function items. But this logic shouldn't apply to closures, because their return types *can* be inferred.

Fixes rust-lang#119916.
